The toast root comes in two parts. Part I has been around for a week or so. This allowed a lot of root access with a major limitation of not being able to write to /system.
Part II dropped last night/yesterday and cleared the path to full root.
You need to do both parts for full root.
Part II is the getting past NAND protection part. With Part I and NAND in place /system as read only. Now we can write to /system. This allows full access to the OS, namely adding and removing apps.
